    Our stay was too short, and I should have booked a few days extra. However, the rooms can use a small update.

    Breakfast had a great selection of food. However, the sliced meat and sliced chees selection could expand a little bit, to accommodate non-Italians a little bit more.

    Too overpriced and the food very small portions. Apitizer and main course were the same size so in the last day we went to eat dinner somewhere else.

    We ate once at the restaurant for dinner, it was expensive and really not good. They put us in a different building, 100metres away from the reception and where we had to go for breakfast. We had to go outside to reach the main building. We had a mini fridge in the room with drinks in it, but no prices around, asked the reception, but never gave us prices.

    We liked the room a lot, very nice. And the breakfast.

    Being in a quiet location, restaurants are a bit limited so you definitely need a car to get around. We could not switch on the AC because of Italian government regulations.

    In a great location for those searching for serenity and peace of mind. Heaven for Golf enthusiasts. Room was clean and comfortable.

    We are generally very happy with our stay, but would have preferred it if the bed was a little softer. There was a power cut during our stay which meant we were without electricity and running water for 2 hours. The staff was really helpful, although there was not much they could do. Surprisingly there was no generator in place.

    The staff was very friendly and helpful. Big thumbs up for the service we received during our stay. We also liked the gorgeous setting and outdoor area. The room was very nice, although a little dated.

    The dinner was just meh. Didn’t love it, didn’t hate it. Very limited menu with almost all of the choices having some kind of fish in it. There was one vegetarian option offered and that’s it. It was a mushroom risotto that was pretty good. Our waiter at dinner was fantastic though. The water at the indoor pool/spa could stand to be a few degrees warmer as well.

    Fantastic staff! The bartender was top notch! Some of the best drinks we have ever had. The spa was clean and enjoyable. Our room was comfy and clean with wonderful views of the volcano and vineyards. Would recommend a stay for sure!

    The resort is situated in a beautiful location with volcanoe , Mt Etna always in one’s view. The hotel and golf course are worth the some what stressful drive up to it’s location. Hotel staff were professional, friendly, and caring to guests needs. Food was delicious with reasonable rates. Room with a breathe taking view of a plush vineyard. Ok the golf course. Great staff. Course is in great shape. Greens hard and fast. Fairways mostly narrow bordered by old in bloom leaves. Very little water. Only issue of concern was that fact of two free roaming dogs which I saw running on the back nine. Golf staff assured me both friendly farm dogs. I highly recommend the hotel and golf course.

    See above. Also restaurant removed fresh tomatoes from my main course at my request but removed every other trimming as well leaving a very bland ravioli

    Great location but poor AC plus our bedroom was on mezzanine level and down flight of stairs to bathroom. Not good for old age pensioners. WE complained about faulty AC and after quite a bit of fuss did get upgraded to room with working AC.

    Nor spa or pool are part of the package when using booking.com, many things in the room didn't work including lights, window blinds, WC airvent and these small things of which the staff knew but never fixed it and din't fix it for us, the food is good but not for the price. Although the hotel was empty, we were given the cheapest and darkest room possible. Also the staff from the spa laughed at us that indoor pool isn't in the price but we can go outdoors if we want (it was raining outside at the time). Finally, the staff rushed us very much if we can in the last half hour of the dinner.

    the location, lobby, interior design.
